Healthy Low-FODMAP Protein Waffles; Gluten-free, Dairy-free
January 13, 2019
Printer Friendly Version
Waffles are unique, delicious and satisfying. A huge favorite in my house, low-FODMAP waffles (like my low-FODMAP Chocolate Chip Waffles) are a weekend treat.
But I wanted more! So I created this low-FODMAP Protein Waffle recipe to capture the sweet and delectable flavor of waffles, with added nutrition and protein to keep me going. These low-FODMAP Protein Waffles are low in sugar, and high in fiber. Not to mention the extra protein to fill me up (approximately 10 g of protein and 3g of fiber per serving). Winner!
This low-FODMAP Protein Waffle recipe makes gorgeous and healthy waffles that you will be proud to serve your family. Enjoy these with low-FODMAP fruit, low-FODMAP maple syrup, or my low-FODMAP Hot Fudge and low-FODMAP Caramel sauces. I drizzle them with almond or peanut butter for more protein and healthy fats.
Prep these waffles on weekends and then freeze them individually. They warm up great in the toaster and are an awesome low-FODMAP snack on-the-go.

Hearty Waffles
I made these today and the house smelled divine. Oats are so economical, so I was excited this recipe called for oat flour as well. Thanks for the super recipe!

Hi Danielle,
We are not able to provide nutritional information for our recipes, unfortunately. We hope that you can locate an app or other ‘tracker’ that can perform the necessary calculations. Have a great day!
How many waffles are considered to be low fodmap in this recipe? Is it one or two? Thanks.
Hi CDB,
Great question! 2 waffles would be fine for a serving. Stay in touch 🙂
